" Vårt gløymde opphav
Harald Hårfagre ikkje vart ferdig med rikssamlinga i 872. Danene heldt grepet om Vika fleire hundre år etter dette. Opphavet til daneveldet i Skandinavia har gått i gløymeboka, og det ville kanskje ha blitt verande der om ikkje språkforskaren Håkon Melberg (1911-1990) hadde avdekka det og dokumentert det grundig i ”Origin of the Scandinavian Nations and Languages”, to band med 950 sider, trykt i 1953. Essensen er at Nordvegen, Norge, norsk, svensk, dansk, islandsk både landsnamnet, språka og nasjonalitetane, er resultat av ein daneekspansjon i Skandinavia i tidsrommet 200 – 500 e.Kr" (ivar fylling).
